[Geomoose-users] highlighting missing from select feature tool - MS4W

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Mark,

Sorry for my delay.

Regarding your report of problems with MS4W 3.1.0 with 
spatialite/sqlite/db data, I have done thorough testing, and I can tell 
you that there is no issue.  I have tested with 
sqlite/spatialite/postgis layers, using your sample mapfile, no issues.

However with your test DB there is issues (messages of "Rejecting 
feature...of incompatible type for this layer"), which was reported on 
the MapServer mailing list 
(http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Trouble-with-spatialite-layer-td4899754.html#a4900764)

Using the sample spatialite data provided in that thread (OSM Finland, 
download it at 
http://hip.latuviitta.org/tiedostot/OSM_Suomi_20120213.zip), I have no 
problem drawing this layer with MS4W 3.1.0 (using the shp2img 
commandline utility):


MAP
   EXTENT 61686.171875 6605839.000000 733170.500000 7776580.000000
   SIZE 400 300

   LAYER
     TYPE LINE
     STATUS ON
     NAME 'selected'
     CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
     CONNECTION '/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/OSM_Suomi_20120213.sqlite'
     DATA 'osm_polygon'
     CLASS
       STYLE
	OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 0
	COLOR 0 0 0
       END
     END
   END
END #map

I also was successful with the spatialite sample data 
(https://www.gaia-gis.it/spatialite-2.3.1/resources.html), and also 
sample data from GDAL (http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/data/sqlite3/).

Therefore, as mentioned in that thread, there could be something wrong 
with the geometry in your sample data.

I hope that helps.
